Product Description
Sony offers an SPP - A968, a single-line cordless phone with digital answering machine. Digital 900MHz is used for extended range thanks to superior transmission technology and a high power antenna you can carry your cordless phone further-and still carry on a conversation. The Jog Dial Control is provided for one-finger access to directory dialing numbers and Caller ID memories; simply push the button and jog up and down to find the entry you're looking for; push the button again to dial the number! The 50 Number Directory gives quick access to a broad range of frequently dialed numbers; for easy reference, each phone number is identified by the person's name. The Caller ID with call waiting (20 Memories) allows you to screen the phone number and name of an incoming second call while you talk on the first (requires combination of Caller ID and Call Waiting services). The base speakerphone feature lets you answer incoming calls at the base. The tapeless digital answering machine records up to 20 minutes of conversation stamping the day and time at will. And you cannot suffer the loss of a single second because all information is written in power-independent flash memory. The LCD Display on base unit performs call screening. Intercom lets you talk between handset and base unit. Page signal initiates intercom contact in either direction.

Amazon.com Product Description
The Sony SPPA968 cordless phone offers 900 MHz digital spread spectrum technology to provide you with superior range and reduced interference. Its integrated digital answering machine utilizes microchip technology. Since the microchip eliminates the need for tapes and moving parts, you get clearer recordings and longer answering-machine life. The answering machine has 20 minutes of recording time.

Other features of this phone include caller ID and call waiting capabilities as well as an extensive dial memory. You can store up to 50 numbers and 3 one-touch numbers for direct dialing. A jog dial feature enables you to access directory dialing numbers and caller ID entries simply and easily. Incoming messages can be sent to three separate message boxes so that each family member or co-worker can retrieve messages individually.

average phone September 30, 2000

I was really expecting a lot more when I bought this 6mos ago. No speaker phone on the main unit is a disadvantage. It does though have a great answering maching with three mailboxes. It also has a computerized greeting if you want that instead of your voice. Battery life is poor. I can go about 450 ft from my house before it cuts out but it gets a lot of static. One thing I hate for sure about it is the way it surfs for channels on its own. You could be on the phone and while you are talking you will here it cut off your conversation or your other partys conversation for about a second and then you have to repeat what you just said. This can be very annoying as you are walking through the house. If you sit still it doesnt do it. What is the point in a cordless phone then? I called Sony and it is no defect that is what it is suppose to do. I get lots of complaints that people cant hear me very well either. Havent figured that one out yet either. I am looking for a new phone now and hope I do a little better research.

I purchased a Sony phone similar to this one.....just minus the answering machine. I thought since it was Sony it would be a great phone. Boy was I wrong. As another reviewer stated the channel surfing is the worst. I can be sitting right next to the base and the phone cuts off and surfs for another channel. Forget about moving your head once you find a channel. That will cause the phone to surf as well. Cordless is useless with Sony. Another thing that bothers me is there is no volume button for the ringing. I am about to have a baby and didn't need this until now. The phone rings terribly loud and since the baby will be in my room at the beginning it will definitely cause a problem. I love Sony but will never purchase a phone from them again. My cousin had a Sony phone which ended up in the garbage and I think mine is about to join hers.
